Daniel, if your wife thinks & calls you certifiable, there's one easy way to cure that....tell her that SHE gets to push the Kirbys around & vacuum the house with them. And tell her that as long as YOU are using the Kirbys & vacuuming the house, she should watch who she calls certifiable. I think the thought of having to use a Kirby would make her change her tune quickly....just watch how quickly she says "no dear, you're not certifiable, I'll never say that again & you can vacuum all you want & have all the Kirbys you desire".

Hi Danielsand
Richard isn't that bad, try Robert! (God how I hate it!) or worse 'Bobby' grrrr!
I'm named after 2 grandfathers Robert, and Alexander. Robert was never part of my life as a child, and Alexander helped raise me. (Also let me play in storerooms where hundreds of vacuum cleaners were stored) So I dropped Robert, Bob, Bobby and so on in 95, and go with Alex. Alex Taber

Hi Danielsand
No problem my friend, and if you want to show you're wife somthing that will really gasp try these.
This is what happens when a room get to crowded. The picture I posted last might was the meeting room of the Vacuum Cleaner Collectors Club back in 1992, that became the official V.C.C.C. museum in August of 85, and by 94, was given a building of it's own. A former, 3 car garage. This was located in Naperville, Illinois where we held the 'official anual meeting from 86-93. The first meeting was in Chesterton, Indiana (then club headquarters) May 4-6, 1985. (The club began on Jan. 2, 1983). So here'the museum, and a look at some of the key members and founders over the years. These are not in croninological order.And yes, there IS the WRONG bag on the Kirby Tradition, the original owner didn't want the disposible bag set up, and kept the bag of her Classic 111. And finally, a few of the oldest known vacuum cleaners. The one resting against the Hoovers, is the Whirlwind, the first known vacuum cleaner. it hand cranked, and dates back to 1869.
